Melinda goes barefoot? Well, you never know. Remember when Gates said that MSFT should hire TWO WOMEN instead of ONE MAN because he could pay TWO WOMEN the same WAGE as he PAID ONE MAN!!!!!

PS: Of course, Bill wasn't married when he came up with this idea. And it has been many years since Bill made that comment. I guess those were the years when men were not so sensitive..............

Sensitive men? What did you think about Steve Balmer's comments. Surely, no MSFT company president ~ who thinks on his feet ~ would say that MSFT share price is too expensive.

Do you believe a company President would make make that remark unintentionally.

I believe I smell fear.

I noticed in last week's NYTimes that people in France complain that Windows is shoved down their throats every time they buy a computer. I believe representatives from the French government said that they would consider whether MSFT violated any laws.

Mebbe all this pressure is too much for Steve.......
